  • activist84 gerisays (@activist84) reported from Beeston, England

    When you’re on the phone to @virginmedia to sort a broadband issue get placed on “hold” while the customer advisor “speaks to a colleague” to be informed the offices are now closed! Absolutely appalling customer service!!! And still haven’t sorted the issue 🙄🙄🙄🙄

  • breadf2man Fazal Rehman (@breadf2man) reported from Loughborough, England

    @virginmedia Nothing that springs to mine, but ive never known it to constantly drop off, some of the reasons the operators are giving me are silly and I told the lady it was rubbish.. im sorry but I am fed up of ringing every day and getting nowhere. I think i will have to move broadband

  • ChrisMaltby Chris Maltby (@ChrisMaltby) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @virginmedia Hi. There’s no fault recorded in the area and I have run diagnostics which came back ok. Third outage today this one has been off for 15 minutes so far. Obviously rebooted hub and PC. This is becoming more frequent

  • breadf2man Fazal Rehman (@breadf2man) reported from Thurmaston, England

    Broadband has been failing since Sunday, phoned Virgin Media at least 6 times ! Engineer came today said he had fixed it, hour later exactly the same problem. Very poor service and they say I should use broadband less

  • ChrisMaltby Chris Maltby (@ChrisMaltby) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @virginmedia Awful service today, WiFi up and down. Always in the middle of important calls!

  • breadf2man Fazal Rehman (@breadf2man) reported from Thurmaston, England

    @virginmedia It said Internet not working and to stick cables in which I did and then it said it was fixed like magic but its not ... still not working

  • breadf2man Fazal Rehman (@breadf2man) reported from Loughborough, England

    @virginmedia The other issue your engineer was in yesterday surely he would have checked these things out ? Personally i dont think he was very experienced or didnt know how to do his job properly.

  • lizdixon77 Liz (@lizdixon77) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia Have done it both ways. It isn’t just the speed it is dropping out completely for long periods of time and the staff in your call centres are if no help unless you want to buy a new service and you do not get promised calls back.

  • lizdixon77 Liz (@lizdixon77) reported from Mountsorrel, England

    @virginmedia constant problems with broadband over past few weeks, still not up to 500mb speed I should be. Calls to your call centre are pointless and no promised calls back received!

  • ChrisMaltby Chris Maltby (@ChrisMaltby) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @virginmedia Always seems to come back after a router reboot. Maybe you could send me a new one, see if that resolves the issue?

  • NikkiPearman Nikki Pearman 💙 (@NikkiPearman) reported from Loughborough, England

    @virginmedia That’s my problem. I can’t get to speak to a person and your automated system doesn’t allow me to discuss the issue properly.

  • ChrisMaltby Chris Maltby (@ChrisMaltby) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @virginmedia PC is Ethernet into Superhub3 but laptop is WiFi. It’s broadband going down completely not just WiFi. This has been ongoing for several weeks albeit not this bad. Kind of lived with it until today

  • breadf2man Fazal Rehman (@breadf2man) reported from Thurmaston, England

    @virginmedia I rang Virgin again after work, redirected to technical advise, done some things from his end and he said it would settle down and be just fine .... the internet is dropping off just the same, no improvement

  • NikkiPearman Nikki Pearman 💙 (@NikkiPearman) reported from Loughborough, England

    @virginmedia I have an issue with my wifi signal being weak upstairs - until last 2 mths it was perfectly fine. However it’s impossible to speak with anyone - I don’t want the automated system or a broadband check as service is fine it’s just range. Unhappy customer

  • dergal Gerry White SEO geek (@dergal) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

    @virginmedia helping out my 74 year old mother, when she resigned with you at Christmas, you also promised to send out a new V6 box, it never arrived, I chased this up and then you sent an older TiVo box. I spoke to the guy and he told me they're the same !?

  • ChrisMaltby Chris Maltby (@ChrisMaltby) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @virginmedia The reboot only works until it goes down again so it doesn’t really ‘work’. Anyway, I spent 40 minutes on the phone yesterday and they’re sending me a new router, hopefully that will sort the problem out. Cheers

  • dergal Gerry White SEO geek (@dergal) reported from Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

    @virginmedia I tried - I assume it doesn't work on a mobile!?

  • ChrisMaltby Chris Maltby (@ChrisMaltby) reported from West Bridgford, England

    @virginmedia 3rd time today. Can someone help me please?

  • nghudson Nigel Hudson (@nghudson) reported from West Bridgford, England

    Goodbye @virginmedia 👋🏻 I’d like to say it was fun but you’re over-priced and your customer service is crap.

  • e2mrk_mark Mark Smith (@e2mrk_mark) reported from Sandiacre, England

    @virginmedia @virginmedia so not only have virgin hiked my bill to £49.00... I’ve had no phone line for 12 months.. it cost me over £4.00 on my mobile to phone them. How does that work Virgin? Appalling service.

  • mark_kelly256 Mark (@mark_kelly256) reported

    @misslaurabowden @virginmedia When you get time, check out #ChatGPT might be able to do to assist you? As for @virginmedia, well, I gave up on them a year back, can’t say I’ve missed them despite the odd Sky issue?

  • Margare76528036 Margaret Murray (@Margare76528036) reported

    @virginmedia When I record a programme and go ba0ck to watch it ...message appears on the screen " failed to record " Also ...major issues with Netflix which is part of my package. Can't get access even though it shows that I am connected. Please help .I've reported the problem previously

  • Michael59644375 Mike (@Michael59644375) reported

    @virginmedia absolute disgrace. When I phone up with an issue with your pathetic Internet, I don't want to speak to a robot who says there is nothing wrong. I'm sure if I stopped paying my bill a person would phone me. Absolutely shite Internet !!!!!

  • GeoffreyPF Geoffrey Fernandez (@GeoffreyPF) reported

    @virginmedia But I won’t connect with the Ethernet to my devices, so I don’t see the point. Let’s say I have good Ethernet connection and still slow speeds with wireless connection, then what?

  • eastmap1 Michael (@eastmap1) reported

    @virginmedia 200 minutes with your customer disservice department then you notify me there is another 45-minute wait. Shocking

  • wesleyddolly Wesley Dolly (@wesleyddolly) reported from Ilford, England

    @virginmedia how do I get my account details if you have never emailed me or sent me and letters. I don’t even know my account number and have to wait till you text to say my bill is overdue to be able to pay my account. What the hell? Customer service is no help so wtf?

  • Skiddy140 Mark Allenby (@Skiddy140) reported

    @virginmedia I have also googled “Virgin Media signal outages” and there are hundreds and hundreds of similar instances. Can you explain this?

  • eastmap1 Michael (@eastmap1) reported

    @virginmedia Over 3 hours and counting with your customer department. You should rename the department customer disservice department. Shocking!

  • spaghettihoop82 Ryan Mills (@spaghettihoop82) reported

    @virginmedia please help! Builders have cut through our WiFi and I'm being told 2 weeks before an engineer can come! I work from home so need WiFi ASAP!!!!
